What would have a larger force on you when you were born: a doctor in the delivery room or the star Sirius. Show all calculations for full credit.

Solutions

Expert Solution

The average mass of a new born baby = 3.5 kg.

The average mass of an adult doctor = 70 kg

The mass of star Sirius = 4.02 x 1030 kg

Distance of star Sirius from the Earth = 8.15 x 1013 km

The distance of doctor from the new born baby = 1 m (say)

The gravitational force between two masses of masss 'm' and 'M', and separated by a distance 'r' is given by

                                                   

Where, G is gravitational constant and G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2/kg2 .

So, force applied by doctor on the newborn baby is

                                                

And, the force applied by the star Sirius on the newborn baby is

                                              

Hence, the star Sirius would apply more force on the new born baby.

For any doubt pleasecomment.

Newton's 2nd law says that when a larger force is applied to an object of mass m, the object will experience a larger acceleration. At the same time, you've learned that all objects experience the same acceleration in a free fall, even if their weights (the forces of gravity acting on them) are different. That sounds like a contradiction: on one hand, from the Newton's 2nd law, a larger force means larger acceleration, on the other hand when applied to...
